Church & Dwight Completes Purchase of Water Pik

EWING, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 8, 2017--
Church & Dwight Co., Inc. (NYSE:CHD) has completed its previously
announced acquisition of Water Pik, Inc. (“Waterpik”), the market leader
in water-jet technology in both oral water flossers and replacement
showerheads.

The transaction was completed substantially under the original terms
announced on July 17, 2017, which called for Church & Dwight to pay
approximately $1 billion in cash at closing.

“Oral care is important to us strategically,” said Matthew T. Farrell,
Church & Dwight Chief Executive Officer. “Waterpik represents a powerful
addition to our existing oral care portfolio which includes ARM & HAMMER
toothpaste, SPINBRUSH battery-operated toothbrushes and ORAJEL oral
analgesics. The flosser products business is a fast-growing platform and
capitalizes on the trends of increased gum disease, oral care awareness
across all demographics and expansion of the middle-class in emerging
markets. The Waterpik brand has a strong reputation among dental care
professionals. Our oral care portfolio gives Church & Dwight a leading
position in a growing category with tailwinds as the population ages and
consumer interest in oral health continues to expand.”

Church & Dwight Co., Inc. manufactures and markets a wide range of
personal care, household and specialty products under the ARM & HAMMER
brand name and other well-known trademarks.
